“He has delivered us from the power of darkness and conveyed us into the kingdom of the Son of His love,”
Colossians 1:13 NKJV
Observation:
In this passage, Paul tells the Colossians that God has delivered us from the power of darkness and conveyed us into the kingdom of the Son of His love. To be delivered means we are no longer under the power of that person. We are no longer under the power of darkness. We have been moved over to the kingdom of God.
Application:
At salvation, we were delivered from the hand of Satan and delivered into the hands of God. Satan has no more authority in our lives. He cannot control us, manipulate or intimidate us any more. We have been conveyed into a new kingdom. Satan’s power has been broken in us, therefore, we must never give excuses that we are under attack, etc. We operate in the kingdom of God and He has all authority. We must not live under the power of the enemy, but in the power of God.
Prayer:
Lord God Almighty, help me to realize that I have been conveyed into Your kingdom, therefore every potential for the enemy to touch my life has to come through Your will. Help me to walk in confidence that You know best and that I have been delivered from the power of the Satan. Help me to walk in Your authority and not be held back by my own thinking.
Your Son,
Jeff
